Now I know the "0xc00000005" error is RAM related, I've tried every driver available for my Graphics card (NVidia GeForce 820M) to no avail. So how could I fix this?

 

Could it be your antivir program blocking access? I do believe you should use daemon tools lite 4, because the newer version has some problems.

Possibly, the dmp files say game.dat tried reading/writing from a location it doesn't have access to.

 

Nope, still nothing. Did a clean install, tried every possible patch, both GPUs, disabling antivirus, and manually creating the options.ini file as well as the maps folder. Also tried every single compatibility mode, tried running in 640x400 resolution but nothing seems to make any difference.

Which bfme2 installation source are you using? Are you using the old daemon tools version for the mini images?

 

I'm quite sure I've seen this error before but I just can't remember how to fix it.

In your case I would probably uninstall everything (including deletion of the 'my battle for middle earth II' directory, manual checking of leftover registry entries and the game installation directory itself).

 

Then do a clean reinstall, check after each change you do whether it works (eg between patches or else, depending on the installation source).

This is the Daemon tools version I'm using. At top it says "Free license" and "Recently used images". 

Like I said before, I got an anthology box (containing BFME1, 2 and ROTWK) as well as forshire's special edition, switching between those sources doesn't make any difference. 

How can I best check the registry entries? I have experience with Microcontrollers and therefore know how messing around in registries can screw stuff up hard, so forgive me if I'm a little too cautious. 

What I did before was delete EVERYTHING (except for the registry entries) related to BFME (even BFME1) and reinstall, that didn't do the trick back then.

EDIT: oh right, the reloaded image. I tried that version too. To no avail. ROTWK does the same as BFME2, failed to mention this earlier.

Yes, thanks.

 

You should delete all the DUMP_ files, they are just leftovers from the game crashes and fill up your harddisk.

 

What happened to your game.dat? Try to rename "game.dat" to "game_bak.dat" and "game.dat.backup" to "game.dat" and see if it helps.

No idea what happened to it. Renaming the .backup made no difference, still crashing.
